Arctic Monkeys - Do I Wanna Know? (Live Debut) (par Maddy Farkas)

Hopefully the album will come sooner than later. Love them. Funny how this song is sort of an intro to R U Mine, both lyrically (Do I Wanna Know / R U Mine?) and musically (same riff, slowed down)

Here’s the video for my fav song off The Thermals’ AOTY contender Desperate Ground. Nice starring gig by bassist Kathy.

▶ Listen: Katie and Allison Crutchfield of Waxahatchee and Swearin' Cover Grimes' "Oblivion" | News | Pitchfork:

This is something of an indie dream team : sisters Katie Crutchfield (aka Waxahatchee) & Allison Crutchfield (Swearin’) cover Grimes’ Oblivion. One of the best songs in recent memory becomes a lovely lo-fi melody. Lovin’ it.

Brand new Stone Temple Pilots with new singer Chester Bennington, of Linkin Park fame. It exactly sounds like classic STP with a more reliable singer.

Pearl Jam, Alpine Valley, September 3 2011 (PJ20) (audio mp3)

Mon, 13 May 2013 15:51:00 +0200

Pearl Jam, Alpine Valley, September 3 2011 (PJ20) (audio mp3):

Each week or so I will bring you a free, legal Pearl Jam bootleg, from my nearly complete collection. Legal means not available on sale from pearljam.com, so if you want a particular bootleg from 2008 onwards, please head there. Unless it hasn’t been released (yet?), like this one (and the one after that, actually).

In september 2011, Pearl Jam hosted their own festival, to commemorate their 20th anniversary. They played with The Strokes, Queens of the Stone Age, Glen Hansard, Mudhoney and a host of others. Pearl Jam headlined both nights which were full of highlights.

Night One included live premiere of In The Moonlight (feat Josh Homme), rare outings of certain tracks (Setting Forth, Help Help) a shitload of guest spots including Josh Homme but also Julian Casablancas, Liam Finn or Mudhoney. Most of the first encore is a Temple of the Dog reunion, featuring Chris Cornell on vocals (and a Mother Love Bone song).

Setlist (courtesy of Two Feet Thick) : Release, Arms Aloft, Do The Evolution, Got Some, In My Tree, Faithfull, Who You Are, Push Me Pull Me, Setting Forth, Not For You/(Improv), In The Moonlight, Deep, Help Help, Breath, Education, Once, State of Love and Trust, Better Man, Wasted Reprise, Life Wasted

first encore: Rearviewmirror, Stardog Champion, Say Hello 2 Heaven, Reach Down, Hunger Strike, Love Reign O’er Me, Porch

second encore: Kick Out The Jams

Pearl Jam audio bootlegs?

Sun, 12 May 2013 21:27:43 +0200

Would you be interested in Pearl Jam audio bootlegs? I have a huge collection, and could post once a week or so.

It would only be legal bootlegs (= not those on sale from pearljam.com) + for space-related (and my small upload speed) constraints, they’ll be in mp3, but in the highest quality available (most of the time in V0 encoded from FLAC).

Answer or “like” to show you interest.

(and I’d probably start with the PJ20 anniversary shows chock-full of special guests)

A couple of days ago, a concert of Savages at London’s Ministry of Sound was streamed live on youtube. Experience it anytime, it is really, really good.

Happy birthday Modern Life is Rubbish, the first great Blur album. Probably in my top 3.

The Vår album is released next week, and here’s another track off it. It’s still very compelling, martial drumming and frantic acoustic guitar. Also, Elias sounds even more like Robert Smith now.

Ok this is a weird thing. Read this article for more info, but in a nutshell, it’s a cover of a 1963 Lee Hazlewood album by an American living in Norway, Charles Normal. What’s pretty interesting there is that he drafted a nice team of guest musicians/vocalists, including Black Francis, Eddie Argos, Dandy Warhols, Pete Yorn or Modest Mouse’s Isaac Brock who sings this one.

Fri, 10 May 2013 08:17:30 +0200

Great Thunder is Katie Crutchfield, who’s made one of the best albums of 2013 as Waxahatchee and her drummer/boyfriend Keith Spencer. This is 90s-oriented lo-fi indie rock, what’s not to like? AND there’s a cover of Fade Into You.

(also the fact they’re listed as brother/sister on Facebook makes me chucke)

The most awaited debut album of the year, and it didn’t disappoint a bit. Extremely powerful and meaningful.

This went under everyone’s radar, but Rivers Cuomo released an album in Japanese. It might actually be the best thing he’s done for a long time, and it’s also a pretty good way to practice your kana and learn Japanese.
